Netted Necklace

This lovely necklace is created using 3-3mm round czech beads (for each row) and 15/0 and 11/0 seed beads netted around them. This pattern can be varied by substituting fire polish or swarovski crystals or pearls for round beads and delica beads for 11/0 seed beads. 4mm beads can be substituted for 3mm - in wich case you would either use more 15/0's or substitute11/0 seed beads. To make it even larger you can increase the number of round beads to 4 or 5 around. This pattern also makes a great bracelet. If you can manage 2 beads around per row, you can use this stitch to make the circle of a toggle. The toggle can be quite a challenge.
